By sowing these seeds regularly, you can enjoy eating crispy, fresh leaves all summer long. The plant prefers sandy, well-drained soil that retains moisture.

When planting your seeds outside, water the soil before sowing and keep the seeds moist at all times. Since lettuce does not grow well in high temperatures, make sure the temperature does not exceed 20°C.
If you want an earlier harvest, start pre-cultivating your seeds 3-4 weeks before replanting them outside.
